The role of membrane physiology in sHSP Lo18-lipid interaction and lipochaperone activity

Abstract:To cope with environmental stresses, organisms, including lactic acid bacteria such as
O. oeni
, produce stress proteins called HSPs. In wine,
O. oeni
is constantly confronted by stress affecting its membrane fluidity. To survive through in these deleterious conditions,
O. oeni
synthesizes Lo18, a unique, small HSP which acts as a molecular chaperone and a lipochaperone. The molecular mechanism underlying its lipochaperone activity, particula… Show more
